*takes a deep breath* Ok. I did upgrade Java to 1.6 before I made any exceptions for McAfee (if that makes any difference). LimeWire is also marked as an exception in the Windows Firewall list (under control panel). Also, your not using port forwarding (at least i don't have to with my setup). You just have to find the "Listening Port" and mark that port number as an exception under McAfee - don't mess with the port forwarding. Hope this helps.

I tried a lot of things regards mc afee, vista and LW. The only solution to keep you antivirus and run Lime wire without problems is:

1.- go to control panel
2.- uninstall programs
3.- select mc afee
4.- unistall privacy service and spam killer
5.- restart you computer and you'll be able to conect to internet and use Lime Wire at the same time as well as you internet explorer.

I had to call mc afee to figure this out cuz was been a pain in the a.... this problem and this is the only solution that they have for now until they fix those compatibility problems with vista, mc afee and LW.

I have my laptop with vista, lime wire and explorer working really good, any question contact me @* email address removed*

Hope this work for you folks!!!
